In 2011, India was ranked the twelfth-most attractive tourist destination in the Asia-Pacific region by the World Economic Forum. Furthermore, travel and tourism is the largest service industry in India, accounting for 6.23% of the country’s GDP and employing 8.78% of the country’s total workforce. During the review period, India’s tourist volumes increased due to a variety of factors, with some of the most notable being robust global economic growth, government initiatives such as granting of export house status to the Indian tourism industry, and incentives for promoting private investment in the form of income tax exemptions and the provision of interest subsidies. Over the forecast period, India’s total tourist volumes are expected to grow due to India’s rapidly increasing average disposable income, the rising number of business opportunities in the country, vast natural and cultural resources, and increased spending by the government on developing tourism infrastructure. India is also expected to record high growth in the number of medical tourists arriving from developed countries. Furthermore, the emergence of newer forms of tourism such as cruise tourism, agritourism and eco-tourism has the potential to substantially increase India’s inbound tourist volumes over the forecast period.

With consumers becoming increasingly health conscious there was increasing interest in products that were healthier than existing offerings. Advertising and marketing also highlighted the health benefits of new products. Across the different categories of packaged food, domestic and multinational players were increasingly looking at this niche and making efforts to develop it in India.
Domestic and multinational companies drive growth

Some of the leading players in packaged food in India are Hindustan Unilever, Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation, Nestlé India Ltd, Frito-Lay India, GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Ltd, Britannia Industries Ltd, MTR Foods and Karnataka Cooperative Milk Producers Federation Ltd.

Packaged food’s key selling point remains the convenience provided to consumers. With the range of packaged food products available in India likely to become wider and awareness of such products expected to increase over the forecast period, it is expected that packaged food will continue to witness healthy growth in the future.

Key Highlights

The projected decline in unemployment rate over the forecast period is expected to drive the sale of foodservices in the UK, especially in the profit sector.

The global financial crisis has also had a negative impact on disposable income, which led to the tightening of trading environments for foodservice operators during 2009.

The UK’s net debt rose from 37.9% of GDP in 2006 to 75.1% of GDP in 2011 and is expected to increase further to 76.5% in 2016. These rising debt levels come at the same time as a sovereign debt crisis in many EU nations and this combination is expected to have a damaging effect on UK consumer sentiment.

Restaurateurs are now using data analytics processes in order to increase their margins.

Foodservice providers are actively using social media to market their products, a growing trend expected to accelerate in the forecast period with the increasing use of smartphones.
